Cheesecake Challenge-IV

And I'm back after a rest of a few hours. Unpacking can take a hike. I have more important things to do. Like tell you about the cheesecake from 'Big Chill'. I had tried their cheesecake once before this and I really could not recall what it really tasted like. However, it was on my list of places-to-go for cheesecake for all the Delhi bloggers and my friends were sure I would find my winner there. This is where the story gets interesting, I hope I didn't lose you :D
So there are a number of Big Chill cafes in Delhi. There is one in Kailash Colony, two in Khan Market, one in Select City Walk Saket. I think I covered them all. Back to the interesting twist. The cheesecake I did end up reviewing is from the bigger, fuller Big Chill in Khan Market. The cheesecake is yum. Without a doubt. Its cheesy, especially love the side of fresh blueberries that they serve it with. The base is perfect. What I did have an issue with however, is that the cake is too soft. Its almost sheer cream.

My rating for this particular cheesecake would be 3.75/5
Now for the twist. I also ended up devouring the cheesecake they serve at the smaller Big Chill in Khan Market. Sorry, no pictures. That, however was well set and chunky like a cheesecake should be. Not to miss, strawberry paste on the side and a sliver of a strawberry on top. If I had to rate that, it would be a 4.5/5
So you see how inconsistency within a restaurant doesn't really work wonders for it.
For the winner now? The cheesecake at the smaller Big Chill at Khan Market and Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf both get a 4.5 and according to me are not be missed :)
Some other places to try cheesecake in Delhi: Mrs. Kaurs in Khan-also for crepes and waffles, Cafe Oz has a decent cheesecake..slightly sour cheese though..if that works for you.
I hope my Cheesecake Challenge was a success and all my readers thoroughly enjoyed reading up on these locations. All the feedback is welcome and of course, your experiences at all these places :)
More posts coming up :)
